This is a plastic and polymer clay sculpture that was originally meant to be the protoype of a resin model kit but lack of funds ended the project. I then assembled and finished the components into the result you see here. The embryo is about four inches tall and the cylinder measures about 13 inches when sealed. I eventually found a use for it as a cover illustration for a local SF anthology magazine.

Here is a closer look at the alien inside. The cylinder will close smoothly (if I remove the soda can that's propping up the lid inside).

Now you can see the alien in all its embrionic glory. I rather like the vein details. The vapor inside is created from some water and a chunk of dry ice.

The keypad is cast in resin from an old calculator and numbered using dry transfer lettering. The handle on top is plastic tubing and frefabricated parts used for oli refinery architectural models.
